Intro

Äpfel, Birnen und anderes Gemüse Stillleben und Esskultur in Werken der Sammlung Würth

Stillleben und Esskultur in Werken der Sammlung Würth

«Der Mensch ist, was er isst.» Diese Feststellung, die gemeinhin dem Philosophen Ludwig Feuerbach zugeschrieben wird, bringt es gewissermassen auf den Punkt. Essen ist ein existentielles, kulturelles und soziales Thema. Es beschäftigt uns tagtäglich, indem wir mehrfach entscheiden müssen, was wir zu uns nehmen, und global. Denn Produktion, Lieferketten, Verpackung etc. sind vielfach ökologisch verflochten. Hinzu kommt die Esskultur, die von der Kochkunst über die Art des Verzehrs ihre Rituale entwickelt hat und regional grosse Unterschiede aufweist.

Kein Wunder, dass das Thema in der Kunst vielfältigen Niederschlag gefunden hat und zwar schon in den frühesten Kulturzeugnissen. Und auch die moderne und zeitgenössische Kunst setzt sich mit diesem zentralen menschlichen Themenfeld auseinander. Dies belegen in einer facettenreichen Auswahl aus der Sammlung Würth die Werke der Ausstellung im Forum Würth Chur.
